A Nurse's Guide to Puberty Education for Special Needs (soon available)

Help address sexuality education, with focus on:

  • Facts, data and information
  • Feelings
  • Responsibility
  • Skills to communicate effectively and to make responsible decisions

Like all children, students with developmental disabilities grow into adolescence with physically maturing bodies and a host of emerging social and sexual feelings and needs. Before these changes begin it is important to provide factual information in a positive and constructive way that is both clear and developmentally appropriate.
